About
Warriors Club History
From our founder, Brenda Heisz:
When my daughter was in grade 7 she was selected to be on the school team and fell in love with the sport. After the school season, she heard about a club team and went to see about playing. Being a year older than the other girls she was told she could not play, therefore I started to research teams and where my daughter could play. We found out about tryouts for clubs and went, however she was cut. This is when I found out that another 30 girls trying out were giving the same fate.
I contacted three local clubs asking if I coached would they consider adding a team, I was told “no” from one and could not get an answer from another. However, the 3rd club said yes. So, I coached, and was able to update my certification. Unfortunately, the next season the club was unable to continue so I volunteered to take over, changed the name and started the Tri Area Warriors Volleyball Club.
